I was looking around on the site and seen that sniper gun, and I have to admit that I think it looks pretty sick. I love the way the barrel looks and everything like that.

And now to the point. I was just curious to how good the performance is on it?? I know its a tippmann and should be a good gun but I was just curious how accurate it was out of the box?? Can you get a cyclone feeder for it because if you can get a r/t system for it, a double trigger, and a e-grip which would increase your rate of fire but if you cant increase the rate that the balls are cycled into the gun, then why make it shoot faster?? Also, if you upgraded it, could you use it for regular play or is it more for woodballing??

It is pretty accurate out of the box. As long you you have the right paint to bore match, you'll be fine. The cyclone is standard on A5s. You can get a RT or Egrip for it as well as a double trigger. If you were to upgrade it, you could use it for whatever you want, but it more designed for woodsball/scenario play.

yep he pretty much summed it up.

but you are really limited to woodsball for a gun like that.

it's a great value if you had planned on doing something like that anyways

for a grip i strongly suggest that you do not get the e-trigger it causes more problems than it's worth it mainly fires it's self after you pull the trigger a couple of times until you pull and hold the trigger or thr gun runs out of air, i've sent mine to tipmman 6 times and it still isn't fixed.

That sounds like a dirty micro-switch issue and not a problem with the grip itself. Marker maintenance is imperative with any electronic sear tripper or electropneumatic marker.
